A Reconfigurable Analog VLSI Neural Network Chip
Satyanarayana, Srinagesh, Tsividis, Yannis P., Graf, Hans Peter
The distributed-neuron synapses are arranged in blocks of 16, which we call '4 x 4 tiles'. Switch matrices are interleaved between each of these tiles to provide programmability of interconnections. With a small area overhead (15 %), the 1024 units of the network can be rearranged in various configurations. Some of the possible configurations are, a 12-32-12 network, a 16-12-12-16 network, two 12-32 networks etc. (the numbers separated by dashes indicate the number of units per layer, including the input layer). Weights are stored in analog form on MaS capacitors.
